Cytomegaloviral pancreatitis - what does this mean

Cytomegaloviral pancreatitis is an inflammation of the pancreas caused by a virus known as cytomegalovirus. it is typically caused by an immune system response to the virus, which can lead to an increased production of pancreatic enzymes and inflammation of the pancreas. this can cause abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and jaundice.

What happens during the disease - cytomegaloviral pancreatitis

Cytomegaloviral pancreatitis is an inflammatory condition of the pancreas caused by the cytomegalovirus (cmv). it is believed that the virus enters the pancreas through the blood circulation and replicates within the pancreatic cells, leading to an immune response that causes inflammation and destruction of the pancreatic tissue. this results in the release of digestive enzymes which can cause damage to surrounding organs and tissue and lead to a variety of symptoms.
